Bible Verses About Integrity

who has no slander on his tongue, who does no harm to his neighbor, who casts no scorn on his friend,

who despises the vile but honors those who fear the LORD, who does not revise a costly oath,

who lends his money without interest and refuses a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken.

Who may ascend the hill of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy place?

He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear deceitfully.

He will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from the God of his salvation.

So their people return to this place and drink up waters in abundance.

The wicked say, “How can God know? Does the Most High have knowledge?”

Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure; in innocence I have washed my hands.

For I am afflicted all day long and punished every morning.

If I had said, “I will speak this way,” then I would have betrayed Your children.

When I tried to understand all this, it was troublesome in my sight

until I entered God’s sanctuary; then I discerned their end.
